Folks:

Marty Cribb, birder and mate on the Smith Island cruise out of Pt. Lookout,
MD, asked me to post the following information (he doesn't have email
access).

On the Smith Island cruise, today, 7/15, Marty had 2 Wilson's Storm-petrels
within 1.5 miles of the fishing pier at Pt. Lookout in St. Mary's county
waters and 5 WISPs in Somerset county waters.

Marty added that the next 3 days should bring good shorebirding to Smith
Island because when the boat docks at the island, it will be during low
tide. Marty says that no large groups have reservations for cruises for the
next 3 days and he himself will be working/birding all 3 days.
